There's a newspaper here I'd like to have you see.It just arrived
From that wicked modern Sodom and Gomorrah,

Hornbeck referes to the Sodom and the Gomarrah because they were cities in the Bible that were destroyed by God since they were full of sin. Hornbeck is using the Bible to make fun of Hillsboro because the town doesn't have the same beliefs as Cleveland does.
